" their" and if they do they will just lose again ...Comment -
Too many competitive teams in the AL next year. I wouldn't bet for it after losing CJ Wilson to a division rival.Comment -
+1600 to make world series or to win? +1600 to make it there seems like a GREAT bet. Yu Darvish could be the read deal. They might still get Fielder too.Comment -
Great bet. Already on it.
All these fukks said the same thing last year after losing Cliff Lee.Comment -
Go play in traffic kidComment -
why didn't you hedge that?
i had georgia tech at 75-1 to win the ncaa tournament in 2004, i ended up winning about 5k by hedging the last 2 games instead of losing it all.
anything over 10-1 should be hedged imhoComment -
where do u see this bet?Comment -
It was a relatively small play as I wouldn't ever do a futures bet that I would have to hedge out (although I'm still pissy about them choking)...
And I actually think I broke about even on the WS as I did end up betting on St. Louis in couple of games they won (although I'm still pissy about them choking)...Comment -
Polly.......I know you fancy yourself a "sharp" (which we all think is simply adorable around here.
).......
but the facts are.....I've won a lot more than I've lost betting on the Texas Rangers the past few years.
Futures bets are like big parlays, pal. Fun to make, but hard to hit. You'd be wise to keep those kinds of bets pretty small.
Anytime you need some help, don't hesitate to ask again, pal.
Remember what I've always told you.....there are no stupid questions, only stupid posters!

fair enough.
i go the other way - i almost never make a futures bet that i CAN'T hedge later. if you won't be able to hedge it later it means the team you took didn't make it very far...
even if it was only something like 20 to win 440 i would've hedged 150 of that in the world series, no matter what the $ amount it sucks to lose on a 22-1 that makes the final

Didn't mean to hit a major nerve pal,just trying to point you in the right direction to the cardinal rule of sports betting.........Polly.......I know you fancy yourself a "sharp" (which we all think is simply adorable around here.)....... but the facts are.....I've won a lot more than I've lost betting on the Texas Rangers the past few years.

Rangers have a very good shot to get to the series again.
Here are your 2012 AL Playoff teams
1. Yankees
2. Tigers
3. Rangers
4. AngelsComment -
so the cardinal rule is to only bet on teams you have no emotional interest in?
that's almost impossible for a sports fan, try to find a game between two teams that you like exactly the same amount.
i would much rather pick a spot on a team i watch all the time (go with what you know). gambling is supposed to be fun you know...

has anything major happend to the texas rangers
why are they 14 to 1 to win world series....if they have there same roster there def going to make it deep.....Comment -
their division rival stole one of their top pitchers and also happened to sign the best player to ever play baseball. Angels team to beat in that division.Comment -
The Angels have always been the team to beat in the West....the Rangers have just happened to beat them the past 2.Comment -
No chance. I like either the Boston Red Sox offense or the L.A. Angels to win the AL pennantComment
Is the WS now a 5 game series or something?
